Stillwaterite intently examined the ship in a bottle as she stepped into one of Desinty City's many parks with Mintaka at her side. Inside there was something shining---"Hey Mintaka---there's something sparkling in here I didn't see before. What do you think it is?"
The corrupt was curious, so she pulled the cork on the bottle---
Only as soon as she did so, the pleasant looking ship inside dissipated into a swirling dark mist.
"Don't you know..." Said a voice, seemingly echoing from within the bottle as the mist swirled, spinning more rapidly inside the bottle. "Cursed are those who are curious---they'll suffer consequences."
Before the corrupt could say anything else, much less process her surprise, the dark mist erupted from the bottle she was holding, and encased the entire park and the block it occupied.

Somewhere in a park downtown in Destiny City, an incredibly odd and powerful magical signature has now appeared on your radar. You're drawn to the signature if you weren't caught up radius before. If you're a civilian, you just feel this strange and urgent pull to check out the park! An entire block is encased in a dark swirling mist...just in case the energy reading wasn't a good enough reason to check it out Upon approaching the area, you find yourself pulled right in! Any attempt to get out is proved useless. Touching the edge of the barrier feels like touching a solid glass wall Inside, the park has an odd color cast to it. Things that should be their regular color are shrouded in various shades of blues, purples and blacks

The air around you begins to vibrate. You can feel it---and next thing you know, the dark mist swirls faster and harder---and then it starts to rapidly funnel back into the bottle it came from.
Everyone is swept away by the mist and sucked into the bottle! The area around the park returns to normal (not that you can see it). The bottle that caused this mess clinks gently into the grass, the cork mysteriously back in place. The interior is still the swirling dark mist

The creature stilled, and in that moment, an eerie silence and pause rippled through the space.
It was fascinating to see what people did when they were driven. Threatened. Motivated. Trapped.
The creature's body had never faced such a barrage before---and over the battle, from various attacks delivered to her from various people who used the bottles to their advantage---she could no longer hold herself together. The deep cracks and fractures in her body cracked all the way through, an audible sound of crunching glass echoing through the space that had suddenly grown very quiet.
"Well done." The congratulations can't help but sound a bit hollow, and as her lips are cracked, her voice creates a second echo. "You've passed the trial. You're free." And her purpose, what she had been created for---it was done.
The creature exploded outwards in a maelstrom of dusted glass.
Without the core of this realm in existence anymore, it would soon cease to be as well.
High above everyone's heads, bottle after bottle started to explode.
The maelstrom of dusted glass that swept by everyone in a rush suddenly froze, only for just a moment, and then it was rushing back in from where it exploded---
Oh, and guess what?
It took everyone with it, converging into a single point until it disappeared.
Everyone is unceremoniously dumped on the grass in the park where this crazy night started in Destiny City. It's into the wee hours of the morning. Beside everyone, next to them in the grass, is a bottle. It's a trophy from the trap dimension.
All is calm. All is right. There is no miasma encircling the park, and no strange energy signature anymore. Just a normal park. As it should be.
The bottle that started all of this is just that. A harmless bottle (now) with a ship in it. It's in the grass beside Corrupt Eternal Stillwaterite, who tentatively (if not a bit hesitantly) picks it up and examines it.
All is well. At least for tonight, anyways. Tomorrow's another day.
No one is trapped anymore, and everyone is now free to go.
